In our life, we accept rituals and events without trying to understand the gist of the event. It's a herd mentality that pervades our society and such a poor state of thinking. You've a great blog. I've just subscribed. Thanks Shilpan Tejvan,

We all have to be vigilant and constantly examine our actions to make sure we're doing the right things for the right reasons. Sadly the state of orthodox religions today is basically a larger scale version of this story. This simple story has such significance.

It's so important for us to remain aware of the intent behind any ritual or spiritual practice. To do anything just because it is "how it was always done" or because "our spiritual teacher told us to" is, as this story so wonderfully demonstrates, just plain silly. Blessings, Andrea Great article! It’s so important for us to remain aware of the intent behind any ritual or spiritual practice. To do anything just because it is “how it was always done” or because “our spiritual teacher told us to” is, as this story so wonderfully demonstrates, just plain silly.

Blessings,
Andrea
